I would keep GC svn as the master and mirror to git. svn is a little safer, using --force you can do quite some interesting things in git. The main purpose of using git-hub is to have something where you can easily fork a short-lived development branch, one for which you have a burst of work for a week or two until things are settled enough to go back into the main repository. After that the forked branch will be deleted again. I'm even tempted to call the whole thing OpenSG-Sandbox. For that I think syncing once a day with a cron job is more than enough, which is what I had in mind. The rebase operations on the temporary dev branches you would want to do manually anyway. > I set up a dashboard at http://reiners.cacs.louisiana.edu/OpenSG_Dashboard.
